What does the Bible say about the Holy Anointing Oil?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Anointing Oil, as described in Exodus 30:22-30, symbolizes the Holy Spirit and is used to sanctify and set apart items and people for God's service.

In Exodus 30:22-30, God commands Moses to create a holy anointing oil made from myrrh, sweet cinnamon, calamus, and cassia mixed with olive oil to anoint the Tabernacle and its furnishings, as well as the priests. This oil represents the Holy Spirit, which sanctifies and empowers God’s chosen people for His work. The fragrance of the oil signifies the beauty and excellence of Christ and His ministry, illustrating how everything done in the service of God should emanate the glory of Christ through the Holy Spirit.
